System for simulating events in a real environment
First Claim
1. A system for events in a real environment containing static objects and dynamic objects, comprising;
- a) position locating means for continuously determining, in the real environment, the position of said dynamic objects in relation to said static objects within a time period in which the event takes place,b) storage means for storing data describing the dynamic and static objects of said environment,c) processing means operatively connected to said position locating means and said storage means, said processing means for processingb1) data from said storage means describing the static and dynamic objects,b2) data from the position locating means indicating at a certain moment the mutual position of the static and dynamic objects of the environment,said processing means being loaded with simulation software,d) display means operatively connected to said processing means, said display means for displaying a simulated view from a selected viewpoint on the simulated environment as result of the processing by the processing means,e) an artificial intelligence engine adapted to selectively manage interaction with one or more of said dynamic objects by;
detecting an interaction with a dynamic object; and
during a temporary period, assuming autonomous control of a simulated object corresponding to a real dynamic object, wherein, during the temporary period, the position of the simulated object in a simulated environment is varied from the corresponding position in the real environment;
f) control means operatively connected to said processing means and to said display means, said control means to repeat the functioning of processing means and the display means for a range of consecutive time moments which together determine the above-mentioned time period, wherein,said position locating means comprises a satellite navigation system, andthe system comprises an environment database in which data about a number of possible competition environments are stored so that, after a specific environment where the competition will be held is known, the stimulation of said environment can be adapted to the choice of the real environment.

Abstract
System for simulating events in a real environment containing static objects and dynamic objects: a) position locating unit for continuously determining the real environment the position of the dynamic objects in relation to the static objects within a time period in which the even takes place; b) storage elements for storing data describing the dynamic and static objects of the environment; c) processing elements for processing (b1) data from the storage elements describing the static and dynamic objects (b2) data from the position locating unit indicating at a certain moment the mutual positions of the static and dynamic objects of the environment, the processing elements being loaded with simulation software; d) display elements for displaying a simulated view from a selected viewpoint on the simulated environment as a result of the processing by the processing elements; e) control elements to repeat the functioning of the processing and display elements for a range of consecutive time moments which together determine the above-mentioned time period wherein the position locating unit includes a satellite navigation system, or a thereto-related system.
